(Episode 51)
She's pregnant?
Are you sure?
Yes, we're sure.
Hey,
what's going on?
Did you know you were pregnant?
Yes.
What?
Who is the father?
Does he know you're pregnant?
It's not someone you know.
Regardless of the father, I'm going to raise the baby on my own.
What? Are you insane?
What if Mom and Dad find out? Do you think they'd just watch?
Don't tell them yet.
Hey.
Hiding won't do, you know.
What...
What are you going to do about this?
I'm going to take responsibility for it.
So keep this to yourself for the time being.
Ah Ri, are you saying you'll live as a single mom?
That wouldn't hurt.
Hey.
What kind of parents would let you?
Until when do you think you'd keep this from Mom and Dad?
Soon, your belly would start to grow.
I said I'll take care of it!
You've lost your mind. You troublemaker!
Are you determined to ruin your life?
You know what?
Ah Ri really is pregnant.
What?
I asked Ms. Shin, and she said she's not.
That's not true. I heard it from Hae Shim herself.
Really?
But was she dating a guy?
Who is the father?
She must've met a jerk.
Hae Shim met up with him,
and he backed out saying he had done nothing to be responsible for.
He did?
How did she end up with a jerk like that?
So what will she do about it?
Well, Ah Ri also said she has no intention of having the baby.
Really?
Then I better turn a blind eye.
I hope it doesn't affect "Marketaurant."
By the way, Producer Um's grandma came from the US.
The next-door woman's mother?
You mean the major shareholder of DBS...
and the chairperson of Plus Market?
Yes.
So while she's here in Korea,
we need to convince Jun Soo however we can...
to close the engagement.
So you should find a way.
How would I do that?
Gosh. If I don't sell off the company to DBS this time,
I might have to close the company for good.
I'm barely managing to pay the staff with the loan.
What?
How did the company get to this point?
Did you cause trouble without me knowing again?
What do you mean?
That's how the economy is these days.
I was barely hanging in there until now.
So do something to cajole Jun Soo.
- Grandma, it's been so long! - Goodness, my baby.
I missed you so much.
I missed you too, Grandma.
How hard it must've been for you...
to go far and wide to film a show?
Oh, my. Have you seen the work I've done?
Of course, I have.
I've never missed any of the shows you've done.
Now, you should find a man to marry now, won't you?
Are you seeing anyone at the moment?
If you are, show me as well.
I was about to say. She has a guy she wants to marry.
Is that so?
Who is he?
He's CEO Na of online market Daybreak.
"Daybreak"?
You mean the competitor of Plus Market?
Goodness, do you know Jun Soo's company as well?
Of course, I do.
How can I not know when I own a market?
I was thinking of opening online for Plus Market as well.
We could take over the company after you guys get married.
As expected, I can't beat you in business.
The CEO of the production company Sun Han works at is Jun Soo's dad.
Also, they live next door to us.
Really?
Then invite them already.
It'd be nice if they could get engaged while I'm here.
I asked them to hurry with the marriage...
on the condition that I'd help DBS take over his company.
Why would Sun Han rush into a marriage with such a condition?
There is a good reason.
He has no plan of getting married.
But Sun Han is hung up on him.
What?
What's so great about him for you to be hung up on him?
Grandma, I really want to get married to Jun Soo.
Who is he to tantalize you so much?
Should I make him go broke so he'd come to his senses?
You're the best, Grandma.
How did it go with Director Shin? What did he say?
I'm glad you brought it up!
It made my blood pressure soar.
Hey, did you know about this too?
Know what?
This is why I opposed to you getting married to a divorced man!
Geez!
I'm home, Mother.
Come sit down.
Okay.
When you got married to Ji Ran,
what did I say if you cause a dispute because of your ex-family?
I'm sorry, Mother.
I said I'll take back this marriage.
I heard Director Shin is your ex-wife's husband.
Did you grab each other by the collar because of that?
I don't know what to say.
You should've held your tongue, why would you cause trouble?
It's my fault.
I'm going to keep an eye on you.
If you make a racket because of this matter again,
you should prepare yourself to be kicked out of the company!
Director Shin will be coming to work from tomorrow.
I promoted him to an executive director of sales.
What?
Mom, that's not right!
Why would you go that far for his ex-wife's husband?
You should stay out of this.
Ah Ri, where are you?
I'm on my way home.
I'll look into a hospital, so let's go together.
Don't try to handle this on your own.
Mom.
I went to the hospital in the morning and got the surgery.
What?
By yourself?
Yes.
Oh, my goodness.
How hard it must have been for you?
They say it's the same as giving birth.
Hurry home.
I'll make seaweed soup.
All right.
Did Mom know you're pregnant?
Yes.
And you lied that you got an abortion?
Hey, Ah Ri.
What the heck are you thinking?
I can still work while being pregnant.
What are you going to do after giving birth then?
With what money are you going to raise Byeo Ri and the baby?
Don't be that way.
Why don't you talk to the father again?
I already discussed it with the father.
He's not worth talking to.
Who is he for you to be like this?
Hey, don't talk to me.
I've already got a lot on my mind without you adding to it.
But...
didn't you say Jun Soo introduced you to the hospital?
Then does he know you're pregnant too?
How would he know that I'm pregnant?
You frightened me. Why would you yell?
Are you cooking dinner tonight?
It smells great.
It's seaweed soup.
How was your meeting with the chairperson?
- I'm home. - I'm back.
How are you guys home together?
We met out in front.
Wash and hands and have dinner.
This seaweed soup is delicious.
But why is there so much beef in it?
It's half soup and half beef.
I wanted you to regain your energy with a hearty meal as it's cold.
And also,
I'm going back to work from tomorrow.
Have you started your partnership with Wonky Box Lunch?
No.
I'm going back to Plus Market.
Pardon?
I thought you will never go back there?
I did, but the chairperson pleaded with me.
Also,
I got promoted to the executive director of sales.
That's really great,
but will you be all right?
She's right.
It's great that you got promoted,
but your opinion is the most important.
I'm going to work for a while and think over it.
Ah Ri,
you left in the morning. Did you not eat all day?
No.
I had sundae soup for lunch.
If you binge eat like that, it's bad for your stomach.
You said you haven't been feeling well recently.
Here. This is it, right?
It is, Ah Ri. Thank you.
Wow, it's all there just as it was.
This was my swaddling shirt,
and this is the pencil I picked at my first birthday party.
You picked a pencil too?
So did I.
This is my baby journal that Mom used.
"Your heart beating."
"Your body is only the size of a bean,"
"but how is it that your heartbeat is so loud and strong?"
But Ah Ri,
can you really hear the heartbeat of babies in your belly?
How would I know?
She said she found out...
that she had me after Dad disappeared.
Mom didn't even have Dad around when she had me,
so she must have been very lonely.
That's not true.
You were with her, so she must not have been.
Do you think so?
I do.
I have you, so I'm not lonely at all.
Wait just a little bit.
When I grow up and become rich,
I'm going to buy you pretty clothes, and a car, and a house for you.
I'm going to do everything...
I was going to do for Mom for you instead.
Make sure you keep that promise.
And you need to succeed.
You can't take back your word later.
Sir, you should slow down.
She...
had an abortion.
You must feel terrible.
I didn't say I'd take responsibility,
so she didn't even talk to me and went straight to the hospital.
Spiteful woman.
She didn't even think about it over a few days?
That's cold.
She didn't want to have it. That's all.
That's why she didn't come to persuade me...
and just did what she did.
If she thought about me even a little,
she wouldn't have done that.
By any chance, are you angry...
because you think she doesn't have feelings for you?
What?
Are you drunk?
You're talking nonsense.
That's how it sounded to me.
Sorry.
It's just that...
I feel bad for her.
My child...
didn't even see the light of day...
and disappeared just like that.
It's a feeling of loss.
You should drink tonight,
and go to sleep without any thoughts.
Spiteful woman.
Evil woman!

(Dongshin Daily Newspaper Annual Spring Literary Contest)
I have less than ten days until the deadline.
This isn't going to work.
How am I going to make money?
(CEO Na Jun Soo)
Is Byeo Ri asleep?
It's a date tea. It'll warm you up before going to sleep.
Thanks, Mom.
Who's calling you at this hour?
It's not a call. It's an alarm.
I have it set so I can write plans.
You're not even at your best. Do you have to work?
Just get some rest today.
If you...
don't take care of yourself properly, you'll regret it later.
Just think...
today was a bad dream.
Ah Ri,
you're going to find a good man someday.
The person you have dialed is not available.
You will be connected to voicemail after the tone.
What?
You don't have to see me again, is that it?
You really are spiteful.
Even if I was harsh,
you can't go do that alone.
Am I...
not even...
worth your consideration?
Where did you drink so much?
Have you fallen asleep already?
What's this?
(Ms. Shin Ah Ri)
Why did he call Ah Ri so many times?
Today is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year.
It will be mild in most areas,
making it a warm day.
Gosh.
Are you watching the Weather Fairy again?
She's even prettier today.
Jeju Island will be cloudy,
and Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, and Chungcheong-do...
You're up early, Mom.
Good morning, Mother.
Morning.
I couldn't get over my jet lag, so I got up early.
That girl.
Kim Bo Ra.
She seems bright and pure.
Whoever her parents are,
you can tell they cared for her very much.
She was the host for "Marketaurant" as well,
and she filmed at Plus Market...
for "Extreme Part-Time Job," didn't she?
She did.
She's good at her job and she has a good personality.
I think she's good.
What if we use Kim Bo Ra as a spokesmodel as well?
What? No!
Why not?
Just.
I don't like her face or her voice.
I just have a bad feeling.
Are you jealous of a girl who could be your daughter?
Today is the winter solstice.
It's the longest night and shortest day of the year.
Ms. Han. Do you know the origin of winter solstice red bean porridge?
Ghosts don't like red beans,
so people made porridge out of it,
and drove out the evil spirits.
How?
They threw it on the yards,
and told the ghosts to get out yelling: "Gosurae!"
Then black bears and wild boars would come down...
going: "Oh, how delicious!"
They eat it then leave.
Then you could also say it's a food...
that shows how considerate our ancestors were of animals.
Dae Ro, you're smart as always.
Then while we're boiling the red beans,
we're going to make potato ongshimi to add as dumplings.
As for these potatoes,
they are our signature ugly potatoes.
What are you making?
Red bean porridge?
Old Lady, this time,
let's play jackstones.
Oh, geez.
I'm tired of winning. Fine, let's do it.
Okay. Let's set the stage.
What's the loser going to do?
Let's think about your blood circulation...
and do some stretches. Do a leg split.
- Stretching... - What? Split what?
Sure! Pick anything!
I'm not the one who's going to do it.
We'll see about that.
Hello, subscribers!
We are at the jackstone championship of the "Wonky Show."
Please cheer our contestants on in the comments!
Doenjang.
Gochujang.
Everything is there.
- Oh, gosh. - Bye.
See? I win. There.
I guess you'll struggle with sore muscles today.
I'm not like you.
Now, as a penalty, it's time to do the splits.
Will she be all right?
Ms. Han. That's incredible.
She chose this for the penalty when she's good at it.
- Hey. This is not fair. - Ms. Han.
Yes. Hello?
Really?
Yes, I will check my mail.
Chan Sung. It seems Nihao Beer wants to suggest us a YouTube commercial.
A commercial? Is this for real?
Are foreign companies noticing our channel now?
You'll be on a lucky strike in 2021.
I hope everyone makes a fortune so their wallets will burst.
Come on in.
It's hangover soup as you seemed to have drunk yesterday. Have some.
Is something going on with "Marketaurant"?
Why? What is it?
Why suddenly ask me that?
Well, you came in all drunk yesterday.
I went in to get you honey tea.
But you'd fallen asleep clasping your phone.
And I saw that Ah Ri was on the receiving end.
Why did you call Ms. Shin in the middle of the night?
Why would you look at someone else's phone?
How could you put it like that? I'm your mom.
I just got a call from Mr. Cho.
He wants Bo Ra for the segment for bringing the ingredients.
Call for an emergency meeting now.
Okay.
Ms. Shin. Can you ring up the casts?
Why didn't you pick up my call yesterday?
Do you have time this afternoon?
Yes. Let's talk in person.
We'll be having an emergency meeting for "Marketaurant."
Come to Na Production.
What's up with that attitude?
Hello? Mr. Kang Dae Ro.
Yes, Ms. Shin.
Is that so?
Sure, I'll go as it's urgent.
(Personnel appointment: Shin Joong Han, executive director)
Executive Director Shin. Congratulations on your promotion.
Thank you, Director Kim.
Chairperson Jin must think very highly of you.
You turned me down when I asked you multiple times.
I guess the chairperson's words surely means a lot.
That is to be expected, you know.
How did you build such a good rapport with the chairperson?
That doesn't concern you.
But Director Kim.
It seemed you slandered me to the chairperson.
I only told the truth, so I didn't make anything up.
I guess you were misinformed.
If this happens again,
I won't let it slide.
Ms. Shin. Why did Jun Soo call you up so much yesterday?
My wife says he called you more than once.
He got home hammered too.
I don't know.
Sorry? You don't?
I should go prepare for the meeting.
Ms. Shin.
That's weird.
Jun Soo is not the type to be obsessed no matter how drunk he is.
DBS pitched us an idea.
They want Kim Bo Ra and the cast...
to collect the ingredients as in "Extreme Part-Time Job."
I'll do my best to make time.
I like going out to the field.
How do you feel about it, Mr. Kang Dae Ro and Na Jun Soo?
I like going out to the field too, so I'd like that.
Many people watched "Extreme Part-Time Job" that Ms. Kim was on.
It was fun, so people watched it repeatedly. You know it right?
The hits stand undefeated.
Well, it is in the top five popular episodes of the show.
I know.
We showed great chemistry there.
I pulled you in a cart and carried you on my back.
You carried Ms. Kim?
Right. That part wasn't aired.
Why would you bring that up?
There's a behind story between you.
That must be why you had a drink and got along well.
Now that I see it, you look good together.
Why don't we set up a romantic vibe in the shooting?
This is the kind of thing that makes the ratings soar.
What about you, Jun Soo?
If Mr. Kang Dae Ro is doing it, I'm up for it too.
But we should go somewhere nearby.
I can make time if it's a day-trip.
Here are some drinks and snacks.
Please help yourselves.
Thank you.
Are you okay, Ah Ri?
I guess coffee makes her squeamish.
Ms. Shin must be feeling sick.
Jun Soo. Do you want to have dinner tonight?
Sorry. I have something to do.
I'll be going then.
All right.
By the way, Bo Ra.
Yes, what is it?
About Ms. Shin.
Does she feel sick even after going to the hospital?
I came by the company yesterday to see her as I was worried.
But she collapsed all of a sudden saying she has a stomachache.
What?
So what happened?
We went to the ER right away.
What did the doctor say?
Jun Soo. No one should know this.
Can you promise to keep it?
Sure.
Ah Ri...
is pregnant.
What?
You must've thought she had an upset stomachache.
You had no idea she was pregnant, right?
Ms. Shin lied to me that she got an operation?
(No Matter What)
He's going to come here after work.
Father, it's me.
Did you check your bankbook?
Oh, my. Ms. Han.
Han Eok Shim is not who she's supposed to be.
- What are you talking about? - That old lady is Han Jae Soo.
I have bad feelings about this.
Are you suggesting we get married?
Are you insane?
